We could even create some kind of leader board, and have one of the categories be # of pull-ups or chin-ups. Could be a solid idea.

I was going to post a dont feed the troll picture, but this is a really good idea, and it looks like the troll lacks the mental fortitude to return to the thread now anyway.

no weight squats are the equivalent of masturbating.

I'm male and 23 years old, my BMI is ~24 (5'10" and ~12 stone)

Thanks

How much exercise depends on how your body feels. But usually 1 hour per day is enough. Some people like to do strength training for an hour and then 30 minutes of cardio after.

I'd suggest home dvd workout programs like P90X or Insanity. They have a clear schedule that's easy to follow, but their sessions are really tough they will kick your butt. I usually recommend this because the workouts and schedule are clear cut, and all you have to do is show up.
